[edit] Press Pass
I've been working and improving WikiPedia for some time now, and have come to a point where I would like to get into WikiNews. This would be a great start. ChristopherFlynn (talk) 02:01, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Skinning the wiki.
I've a variation of Datrio without all the curvey bits and a picture background. My idea for a skin involves a picture of a newspaper (rolled/folded broadsheet) similar to how Wikipedia has an open book. The picture is the hard part, I found stock photos that would be perfect - but licensing... --Brian McNeil / talk 13:11, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
- If I've got this right you should be able to work on this css and share your redesign under View->Page Syle->Messedrocker (at least on Firefox). --Brian McNeil / talk 10:43, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] you're back (a little bit anyway)
Just couldn't stay away? Bawolff ☺☻ 19:17, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Sean and the G8
I don't know if you've followed the discussion over on WN:AR, but I think the best way to close off the discussion for the time being is if Sean can have a press pass with an expiry date. How feasible is that with your design? --Brian McNeil / talk 08:58, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
- Hi, Brian told me I was to ask you for an image of a wikinews Presscard, so thats what I´m doing :). Regards Sean Heron 07:43, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Obtaining mugshots
Hello,
I help maintain the following article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Channon_Christian_and_Christopher_Newsom
A photo of the accused murderers was recently removed due to questionable copyright information. Fortunately criminal mug shots are public domain and thus open source and can be readily uploaded to Wikipedia. The only problem is I won't be able to obtain mug shots of the accused murderers' because I lack a reporters credential. Another wiki editor referred me to WikiNews and suggested I ask an accredited member for assistance in obtaining mugshots
The images in question can be found on this commercial news site, though they can't be copied due to copyright laws.
http://www.volunteertv.com/special/headlines/5686076.html
Would you be willing to contact the Knox County Sherriff's office to obtain these mugshots?
It should be fairly easy for you, since you are an official WikiNews reporter. Graham Wellington 17:37, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikinewsie bio
Hi, just seeing about the Wikinewsie website redesign, and noticing the bio part...
 |
Reporting for Wikinews since 2004, Nick Moreau has focused his original reporting on North American entertainment and Canadian politics. His coverage ranges from interviews of Ontario provincial parliament and city council candidates, the latter of which which were quoted the Toronto Star newspaper, and uncovering the internet child-baiting of John Mark Karr, the false confessor in the Jon Benet murder investigations, to odder beats such as regular investigative coverage of the Tigger hit incident, while other news outlets left the story at the first unbalanced report. Moreau regularly gets professional photographers to volunteer their time and take photos at events around the continent, including as award shows, red carpets, and concerts. Moreau was a sports and history reporter for The Brampton Bulletin newspaper for two years. |  |
Something like this, maybe? -- Zanimum 16:28, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Edbrown05 Request for ArbCom
I've proposed a request for arbcom relating to the recent situation with Ed. If you take issue with being listed as an involved party, please remove your name from that list. Otherwise, I suppose you'll be expected to make a brief statement on that page. irid t i e 07:57, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Press pass pretty pretty please, with cherries on top?
Hey James, could you send me a press pass please? :) I meant to ask for one a while ago but got lazy on it. --TUFKAAP 04:33, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

If you have not already seen this, please look, comment, and vote both here and on bugzilla. Further assistance such as contact information for Google would be a very useful detail to share and help in petitioning for a listing in their news index. --Brian McNeil / talk 14:53, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Press pass
Hi, I'm supposed to ask you about a press pass? I'd like to do on-the-ground reporting for the G20 protests in London on 2 April. --Killing Vector (talk) 18:03, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
